After moving from SXCE to 2009.06, my ZFS pools/file systems were at too new of a version. I upgraded to the latest dev and recently upgraded to 122, but am not too thrilled with the instability, especially zfs send / recv lockups (don't recall the bug number).
I keep a copy of all of my critical stuff along with the original auto snapshots on a USB drive. I really want to move back to 2009.06 and keep all of my files / snapshots. Is there a way somehow to zfs send an older stream that 2009.06 will read so that I can import that into 2009.06? Can I even create an older pool/dataset using 122? Ideally I would provision an older version of the data and simply reinstall 2009.06 and just import the pool created under 122. It seems this would be a regular request. If I understand it correctly, an older BE cannot read upgraded pools and file systems, so a boot image upgrade followed by a zfs and zpool upgrade would kill a shop's ability to fall back. Or am I mistaken? Is there a way to send older streams?
